Rails 3.0 Released
An anonymous reader writes "After two years of gestation, 4 betas, 2 release candidates and thousands of commits by 1600+ contributors, the result of the succesful merge of the Merb and Rails frameworks (and teams) is now out and ready to transport your web applications on all new shiny tracks."
I've avoided Rails for years due to the community's reputation. So against my better judgement, I decided to build a project on the Rails 3 Beta, thinking that some of frameworks new features made it hard to ignore.
And you know what? It's a really nice framework. Nice enough that in the future, I'll probably be using Ruby on Rails instead of PHP or Python when the project allows.
But I do wish the community would grow up.
